Apply the changes.
If you obtained the certificate by using the
/cfg/cert
#/request
command to generate the CSR and are using the
same certificate number, the certificate is now fully installed.
If you obtained the certificate by means other than using the
/cfg/cert #/request
command to generate the CSR and
are using a new certificate number, you must now add the
corresponding private key (see
).
Figure 16 "Adding a certificate by pasting" (page 312)
shows
sample output for the
/cfg/cert #/cert
command. For
more information about the Certificate menu commands, see
“Managing and viewing certificates and keys” (page 302)
ATTENTION
Depending on the type of certificate the CA generates (registered or
chain), your certificate may be substantially different from the sample
output. Be sure to copy and paste the entire contents of the certificate
file.
